Julia Sterland, portrait painter

Reivers Festival event

Drumlanrig St Cuthbert's Primary School, Hawick TD9 0AU

Julia Sterland is a British artist, who paints figurative portraiture, still lives and landscapes.

She will be at the Reivers Festival offering on-the-spot portraits in oils to festival participants, especially those in costume.

“I am increasingly drawn by the human form; by the beauty and power and energy of structure and muscles. I find that there is a connection with the subject, a communication that is unique and better than other communication with words.” Julia Sterland

Julia will be exhibiting her landscape paintings, including scenes of Hawick, at Unit Four: The Cornucopia Room in August this year.
